Cool, if this is the first time you are hearing of monoprice take a good look at their site. They have excellent products at awesome prices. All of my HDMI, optical cables, banana plugs, ect are from monoprice.

Ok I just recieved my monoprice optical switch and hooked it up! I have a couple questions for whoever can answer.....

1. Are there any settings on the Directv DVR that I need to change to or adjust for the best optical sound?

2. On my PS3 I presume I choose DTS 5.1 over Dolby Digital right? And if so do I go linear optical or bitstream optical as again I have a LG HTIB and the optical switch?

3. Also on my PS3 there is an option called "Audio Multi Output" do I turn that on or leave it off as it is??

4. Finally on my LG dvd/reciever when I am watchin a blu-ray now, I have to options on aux/opt and they are bypass or virtual. It seems virtual is louder. Which one do I choose bypass or virtual?


Thanks any answers are appreciated!! Got Em!!
